River of God: Where Religion Began and Why Grace and Love Will Triumph (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781480951716)

You hold in your hand what might be the clearest book on religion ever written. It proposes that five basic views of God exist in the world--not dozens. Four of these religions are partly true, but contain distortions--like misguided distributaries off a river. These errant streams are all similar--based on fear and good works. However, the River of God--the eternal source of truth about the Almighty--is different. It operates by trust and love and is based on grace.

Want to find true faith or religion? It's found in a Person Who is Himself the River of God.

"Whatever your belief, you will find this book a challenge to your thinking to rise above the world and look down on five major worldviews. You will be forced to renew or make a new commitment. It will help you think globally and personally. That's quite a challenge."

--LOREN CUNNINGHAM, Youth With A Mission

"In a world full of more relativism and competing religious narratives, Dr. Ron Boehme's latest work, River of God, serves as a clear descriptive resource defining the 'other voices' while simultaneously proving that only one can occupy the pedestal of truth, eternal life, and grace."

--REV. DR. SAMUEL RODRIGUEZ, Hispanic Evangelical Association

"This is a powerful book that helps to answer the most important question a person can ask in their lifetime. 'Is there a God to whom I must answer?' River of God is written with piercing clarity that will break through confusion and conflicts of choice. The love and grace of the 'Lord of All' shouts above the fray and draws the reader into a confident and settled understanding of the one true Way!"

--DR. GLENN C. BURRIS, JR., The Foursquare Church

"River of God is an open door for revelation and an invitation to an ever-deepening relationship with the only true God rooted in love and grace, requiring nothing but faith. Bring the longings of your heart to these pages, and open your mind to this journey of reason and faith, longing and hope. I assure you it will be a journey of joy."

--FROM THE FORWARD BY DICK EASTMAN, International President, Every Home for Christ
